Forward-looking statements & Qualified Person Certain statements in presentation constitute “forward-looking statements” or “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable securities laws, including, without limitation,

the timing and results of: (i) a pre-feasibility study (PFS) at the Kamoa Project; (ii) statements regarding the expected date that the development of the first set of Kamoa twin declines is

to begin; (iii) statements regarding the declines having been designed to intersect the high-grade copper mineralization in the Kansoko Sud area; (iv) statements regarding the projected

depth of Shaft 1 at the Platreef Project in 2018 and the timing of the commencement of the start of Shaft 2 development; (v) statements regarding underground mining to use

mechanized room-and-pillar and drift-and-fill methods; (vi) efforts to upgrade historical resource estimates at the Kipushi Project; (vii) the de-watering program at the Kipushi Project;

and (viii) statements regarding the timing, size and objectives for completion of drilling programs. As well, the results of the preliminary economic assessment of the Kamoa Project and

the prefeasibility study of the Platreef Project constitute forward-looking information, and include future estimates of internal rates of return, net present value, future production,

estimates of cash cost, proposed mining plans and methods, mine life estimates, cash flow forecasts, metal recoveries, and estimates of capital and operating costs.

Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Ivanhoe, its mineral projects, or

industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements or information. Such

statements can be identified by the use of words such as "may", "would", "could", "will", "intend", "expect", "believe", "plan", "anticipate", "estimate", "scheduled", "forecast", "predict"

and other similar terminology, or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved. These statements reflect Ivanhoe’s

current expectations regarding future events, performance and results and speak only as of the date of this presentation.

In making such statements, Ivanhoe has made assumptions regarding, among other things: the accuracy of the estimation of mineral resources; that exploration activities and studies

will provide results that support anticipated development and extraction activities; that studies of estimated mine life and production rates at the Kamoa and Platreef Projects will provide

results that support anticipated development and extraction activities; that Ivanhoe will be able to obtain additional financing on satisfactory terms; that infrastructure anticipated to be

developed or operated by third parties, including electrical generation and transmission capacity, will be developed and/or operated as currently anticipated; that laws, rules and

regulations are fairly and impartially observed and enforced; that the market prices for relevant commodities remain at levels that justify development and/or operation; that Ivanhoe will

be able to successfully negotiate land access with holders of surface rights; and that war, civil strife and/or insurrection do not impact Ivanhoe’s exploration activities or development

plans.

Although the forward-looking statements or information contained in this presentation are based upon what management of Ivanhoe believes are reasonable assumptions, Ivanhoe

cannot assure investors that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. They should not be should not be read as guarantees of future performance or

results. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the factors discussed

under "Risk Factors" in Ivanhoe’s most recent Annual Information Form.

These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this presentation and are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. Subject to applicable securities

laws, Ivanhoe does not assume any obligation to update or revise the forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this

presentation. Ivanhoe’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

This presentation also contains references to estimates of Mineral Resources. The estimation of Mineral Resources is inherently uncertain and involves subjective judgments about

many relevant factors. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The accuracy of any such estimates is a function of the quantity

and quality of available data, and of the assumptions made and judgments used in engineering and geological interpretation (including estimated future production from the company’s

projects, the anticipated tonnages and grades that will be mined and the estimated level of recovery that will be realized), which may prove to be unreliable and depend, to a certain

extent, upon the analysis of drilling results and statistical inferences that ultimately may prove to be inaccurate. Mineral Resource estimates may have to be re-estimated based on: (i)

fluctuations in copper, nickel, platinum-group elements (PGE), gold or other mineral prices; (ii) results of drilling, (iii) metallurgical testing and other studies; (iv) proposed mining

operations, including dilution; (v) the evaluation of mine plans subsequent to the date of any estimates; and (vi) the possible failure to receive required permits, approvals and licences.

Disclosures of a scientific or technical nature in this presentation have been reviewed and approved by Stephen Torr, who is considered, by virtue of his education, experience and

professional association, a Qualified Person under the terms of NI 43-101. Ivanhoe has prepared a NI 43-101 compliant technical report for each of the Kamoa Project, the Platreef

Project and the Kipushi Project, which are available under the company’s SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com. These technical reports include relevant information regarding the effective

date and the assumptions, parameters and methods of the mineral resource estimates on the Kamoa Project and Platreef Project cited in this presentation, as well as information

regarding data verification, exploration procedures and other matters relevant to the scientific and technical disclosure contained in this presentation in respect of the Kamoa Project,

Platreef Project and Kipushi Project.

Platreef’s BBBEE deal ranked as platinum sector’s

2014 top performer in South Africa

Transfer of 26% ownership stake in Platreef Project to a new

special-purpose entity is one of the broadest empowerment

transactions ever done in South African mining.

• 20% held by a trust to benefit 20 local host communities, with estimated combined population of 150,000, in the vicinity of Platreef mine.

• 3% held by a trust for Platreef’s historically disadvantaged, non-managerial South African employees.

• 3% held by a consortium of 187 local entrepreneurial companies and 333 individual shareholders.

Platreef Mining Right formally activated in November 2014.

In January 2015, Ivanplats (Ivanhoe’s subsidiary) was awarded

“platinum sector’s top performer” in South African government’s black

economic empowerment benchmark scorecard.

2015 Prefeasibility Study (PFS)

Phase 1 – 4 million tonnes per year (Mtpa)

Platinum, Palladium,

Rhodium & Gold (3PE+Au)

Production

433,000 oz/yr

Total Cash Cost After Credits $322/oz

of 3PE+gold

Pre-Production Capex $1.2 billion

After-Tax NPV8% $792 million

After-Tax IRR 13%

Development of a large,

mechanized, underground

mine is planned through

a phased approach.

Phased development:

Initial annual rate of 4 Mtpa

to establish an operating

platform; doubling of

production to 8 Mtpa; and

expansion phase to a

steady-state 12 Mtpa.

At a projected production

rate of 12 Mtpa, Platreef

would be among the largest

platinum-group metals

mines in the world.

The economic analysis is based on probable mineral reserves only. Metal price

assumptions used for the PFS economic analysis are: US$1,630/oz Pt, US$815/oz Pd,

US$1,300/oz Au, US$2,000/oz Rh, US$8.90/lb Ni, US$3.00/lb Cu.

Source: Production estimates for projects other than Ivanhoe’s Platreef Project have been prepared by SFA (Oxford). Production data for the

Platreef Project (platinum, palladium, rhodium, gold, nickel and copper) are based on reported PFS and PEA data and are not representative

of SFA's view. All metals have been converted by SFA (Oxford) to platinum equivalent ounces at price assumptions of US$1,384/oz platinum,

US$803/oz palladium, US$1,265/oz gold, US$1,173/oz rhodium, US$7.66/lb nickel, and US$3.11/lb copper. Note: As the figures are platinum

equivalent ounces of production they will not be equal to 3PE+Au production.

Kipushi Zinc-Copper Project

Past-producing high-grade zinc-copper-germanium mine.

Access to mine’s main working level achieved Dec 2013.

Underground drilling program commenced March 2014.

Drilling objective to confirm and expand historical resources.

Historical Resource Estimate

Historical cut-off:

Low grade: 1% < copper < 2% and 7% < zinc < 14%.

Waste: copper < 1% and zinc < 7%.

Note: A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify these historical estimates as current Mineral Resources and Ivanhoe

Mines is not treating such historical estimates as current Mineral Resources. Historical resource estimate by Techpro Mining and Metallurgy

in 1997.

Successful start-up of underground

drilling program

Initial assays received in July 2014

Three holes drilled in Big Zinc returned zinc grades of

40.9% over 348.5 metres, 44.8% over 339.4 metres, and

33.3% over 305.8 metres.

Internal zones in the first two holes, KPU001 and KPU002,

returned zinc grades of 60.4% over 35.1 metres, 56.3% over

18.0 metres, and 56.6% over 71 metres. These internal

zones also returned germanium grades of 87.2, 120.4 and

111.9 g/t, respectively.

Two holes in the Série Récurrente (Recurring Series) zone

returned bonanza copper and silver grades. Hole KPU008

intersected 11.2 metres grading 17% copper and 89.6 g/t

silver.
